Dr. Jess Risk
I’m a Precision Nutrition-certified coach, certified weight-management specialist, and the founder of Risk Nutrition Co. My work centers on helping active women and athletes fuel their bodies with confidence — not restriction. My own journey includes a 70-lb weight loss and a full shift into recreational athletics, and it’s what drives my compassionate, no-nonsense approach to coaching.
As a Doctor of Education, I’ve presented nationally on topics including Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) and the unique nutritional needs of female performance athletes. My coaching is evidence-based and built around flexible eating strategies that fit real, busy lives — whether you’re a competitive athlete or just trying to show up consistently for your workouts.
I work with clients one-on-one to help them reach their aesthetic, performance, and health goals by building self-trust and consistency. True transformation, in my experience, comes from balance, self-awareness, and resilience — not from following a perfect plan.
Outside of coaching, you’ll find me training for my next 50k, exploring trails, experimenting in the kitchen, or snuggling with my husband and cats. Follow me on Instagram at @joyfilledjess or find Risk Nutrition Co. at @risknutrition.co.
